Quote:This is good suggestion. Maybe For Fun should go before Archetypes and Powers with two largest section at the end of list.Originally Posted by Goliath Bird Eater
The updated rules read as pretty standard fare. No complaints or suggestions.
As for re-working the board, here's my humble suggestion:
News, Events & Announcements
- Announcements
- Discussion
- Developers' Corner
- Developer Digest
- Community Digest
- Suggestions & Ideas
- Paragon Market & Paragon Rewards
- Training Room
- Copy Tool
- Player Questions
- Player Guides
- Gameplay & Technical Issues (mac user forum either merged into this or as a child forum)
- In-Game Systems (below sections would be child forums)
Archetypes & Powers - Leave as-is if possible- Badges & Gladiators
- Base Construction
- Inventions & Auction House
- Mission Architect
- Player vs Player
For Fun
- CoH: Freedom General Discussion (merged w/ EU & Oceanic if possible)
- Player Events or Calendar
- Role-Playing
- Comic & Hero/Villain Culture
- Multimedia & Fan Creations
- Forum Games
NOTE: I'm not happy with the placement of the For Fun section in this proposed layout. It's sandwiched between two substantially larger sections, which really diminishes it. I'd like for it to be somewhere above Archetypes & Powers, but can't decide on an appropriate spot.
Also, as already mentioned, CSS manipulation of fonts and spacing can help to further reduce a sense of "bloatedness"
Considering original post I have question: Since when are Dominators support and Corruptors aren't? -

I wish they'd reconsider on IOs that you've already bought and slotted on now Premium Accounts...
You can still pay for a month, get 400pp and use that points to pay for IO license for next two free months.

It says NEARLY everything you already purchased right there in what you quoted. It has said "Nearly everything" in everything I have ever read regarding it. The use of the word "nearly" is very important there, as that word, which keeps getting ignored, is clearly stating that you don't keep 100% of what you had before.
"Nearly everything" is not the same thing as "everything". And if you DID keep 100% of everything you paid for, how much revenue would the game lose when VIPs stopped paying their subscription because there is no longer any reason for them to pay anything at all? The game losing revenue would be a BAD thing, as CoH's parent company has repeatedly proven that they are not the slightest bit shy about shutting down unprofitable games.
They don't want us to stop subscribing, so premium will never get everything that VIP have.
And it doesn't mater what is written on boxes or notifications. If you become premium you will keep some thing you have payed for - and it is said what you get to keep depending of how much time you have spent paying for game.
It is still much better deal than we had before - no subscription NO GAME at all.
On Good vs. Evil box (one I have) is written that box includes 12 character slots per server - but also that game needs subscription. Even if on GR box is written that it includes incarnates (don't have box because it was never made for EU) it still says that game needs subscription. So no subscription - no incarnates.
Premium players are still treated better then f2p - they could just say if you go premium you get same thing as f2p - 2 slots and basic game no mater what you have bought, everything else you can get back when you subscribe again.
I still don't like that VIP have to pay for new power sets, even with free points I think that is the thing subscription should cover. -
If I ever decide to go premium, think that incarnate would be the least of my problem.
Bad thing about going premium are IO's if you don't have enough VeT rewards (can be solved with 160 pp a month) and character slots (I do have slots bought, but still it would be going from more then 50 I use to less then 20).
Incarnate I use on 2-3 alts and I can always choose not to unlock them.
More problem will be with people that bought GR and don't have MM and controllers unlock. You have payed for sets but can't play them cause you don't have AT.
Incarnates - they do need to have something to keep people subscribing, or all top level VeT's could just went to premium (with everything unlocked). -
Can we get our hamsters back? They were much better.
-
Sals is full as far as I know, but if someone leave you can try to grab spot. Union Taskforces should still have some room and people mostly advertise on both channels. Union chat is... well for chat.

I would like to see Server Maintenance in NA prime time - bet that thread like this would have more than 1000 posts.
If Server Maintenance must be in EU prime time, can we at least get badge "I've survived Server Maintenance" or something like that, since we won't get any other compensation. -
Think that Underground with practice will have same difficulty as BAF. It can be easily failed, but with enough people knowing what need to be done almost every other run will be Mo. Bombs are not hard if people don't rush, and Avatar fight badge needs same coordination as BAF one.
Keys and Lambda - I don't even want to try, especially Keys. -
Took me 17 minutes on level 22 thermal/fire defender. Had only one death since last EB since I was flying to low (hover helps with ranged). Got mine first hero merit (I'm doing tips just to switch to vigilante/rogue) and have nice roll of LotG.
Still wish that the arc is bit longer. Maybe the other parts will be. When will we get the next one? -
And forum eat my post
Anyway, can you please think of EU players also. In last 30 days we lost around 3 days of game play, because of emergency fixes and new issue.
Please just start maintenance bit earlier, so it would be over before EU prime time. -

No issue with the transfer for me. Bought the bundle and used 5.
Thanks Maestro, that is what I wanted to here. Time to move some 50s from ex EU servers to ex US servers.

When they see what people are buying and what not, prices are going to change.
If something is not selling that will eventually get discount.
They couldn't see that on beta because with free points we were buying everything possible we could, for real money people won't be buying what they doesn't need, so overpriced thing might become cheaper.
(And like I said on beta - I am willing to buy server transfers for 1$ or 2$, but would never buy them for 10$ or 20$ - so thanks for that discount) -
Next week after patch AFAIK.
-
Guess I will have to risk and try
-
I'm planing to get that bundle if they does.
Haven't really understood last night, are only free server transfers postponed or server transfers doesn't work at all for now.
Also if I get bundle, will I have to spend them right away before we get free transfers or I can use some of them later? -
I'm sorry if this was mentioned somewhere before, but just wandering do we get that free points and server transfer on Tuesday (with head start) or when freedom goes live?
-
Think my VEAT still have in her comment "Itsy Bitsy Spider looking for the team"
-
I am waiting for Time to come on live. So far I have tried all of support sets either on defenders or corruptors (some on both) also have Fortunata and I don't know what new defender or corruptor to make.
Time and poison are going to be my new projects when new issue come (and I really did enjoyed time/fire defender on beta).
I'm waiting for empath guide, because I am sure that you will tell people not to be heal bots but play even empath as offender ( I play all my support alts as offenders and still my teammates have all shields or SB all the time if I am on buffer*).
*except scrapper or some other soloist that decided to solo on the other part of map far away from others
-
I'm not really fan of melee AT.
Can play them, but do prefer range, especially defenders/corruptors.
-
EU prime time on Friday, dxp weekend, in the middle of TF.
Is beta up? -
Think that Atlas Park is giving Freedom bad name. Outside of Atlas everything is fine and you can run normal missions and do TF's as if it was any other server.
I have made 3 alts on Freedom since server merge and was just avoiding Atlas all the time (or closed chat when passing through). Had lot of normal mission teams there (although people tend to quit team without saying goodbye more often then on EU servers) and did couple of TF's. Haven't yet reached Cap - so can't tell what is situation like on red side.
Everyone have their own way of playing and if someone wants to PL, let him do that. If someone wants to farm - that is his choice as long as he doesn't force me to join him. I prefer leveling slowly and when my alts reach 50 they are mostly retired - only have few 50's that I am still playing and only two incarnates. For me there is no rush.
(and I haven't entered AE for a long time - it is very hard to find interesting arc because of too many farms)
-
6 GB download.
I'm so happy
It was much easier before when beta and test were together (at least at EU side). Now just to wait for 500 minutes to pass and hope that I can download in background while playing and be able to move in game
-
Maybe defenders have bit lower damage, but they are usually much better in surviving.
It takes me same time to complete same mission on blaster and defender, even if blaster have much better damage, just because I don't have to run from hospital every few minutes (or wait for enemies to move to use wakie).
If you aren't going for speed record, or want to farm, defenders are just as good as other AT's, even better.
And if they rise damage of defenders then all defender teams would be even more overpowered then they already are.
-
If someone make pictures, please give us link to them. Don't plan to unlock anything before I see pictures.
-
I done it just once and it was fun, especially since half of the people was doing it for the first time. (we succeeded)
My impression is that it is to confusing in the end, red, blue, green beams, messages just appearing and you don't know what is what, but after few runs think that it will become easier.
Time freeze is cheating! (I want that power - always wanted to have pause button in MMO games)
Biggest problem is lag and not being able to return after crash. (alliance leader can change, he can crash also, and I'm not that good in remembering the names and I even have problem seeing names in league window, so can't just send tell and ask for reinvite)
Think I'll just go back to leveling my lowbies until that is fixed.
